I think I tried to post this earlier but my connection timed out... Sorry!
Just a quick question to my favourite DR Experts:
I'm moving back, this time to Cabrera, and this time with my little 5 year old daughter. I'll be taking her to the Pediatrician in a few weeks to figure out what vaccinations she needs to be up-to-date and which specifically for the DR. So here are my questions:
- I know there was some Dengue outbreak and that there's no preventative medicine (other than nets and spray)...anybody know if this is any concern in the North Coast?? Of course I'll be living with screens, fans, and bug spray...but just to know
- Has anybody had any issues with their young child contracting any serious illness down there, and if so was there good care for the children? I'd like to look into a really, really good Pediatrician in Cabrera or close by...maybe that's a whole other thread, though
- Lastly, I'm scared to give Lola medicine and treatment that's geared to adults or that may have really serious side effects. Has anyone had a child that's suffered really nasty effects from any of the vaccinations their kids have received?
PS I've checked out the WHO sites, etc...and also visiting the Pediatrician soon. This is just first-hand-experience that I'm looking for now. Thanks guys!!!!
